Los Angeles Clippers 2012-2013 Preview

In this article:

The Los Angeles Clippers, after having a great 2011-2012 season, finishing 40-26 and paving the way for future success, improved even more in the offseason. Already featuring the dynamic ability of Chris Paul and Blake Griffin and a supporting cast that featured DeAndre Jordan, Caron Butler and Eric Bledsoe, the Clippers went out and added Grant Hill, Lamar Odom and Jamal Crawford. They are shaping up to be one of the best teams in the NBA and will be battling with the Lakers for supremacy in the Pacific Division and the city of Los Angeles.

The 2012-2013 schedule for the Clippers features the Halloween home opener against the Memphis Grizzlies, the November 2 home opener for the Los Angeles Lakers at the Staples Center (their shared home court), consecutive home games against the Heat and Bulls in November, a tough seven game East Coast road trip in February with games against the Celtics, Heat, Sixers and Knicks and the Pacers, Lakers and Timberwolves in April.
